GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

I would like to see more resources become available for low income communities, such as Andrews. There are hundreds or kids that lack the resources they need in order to become successful.

T Wingate Andrews High School is not what most people think it is. A lot of people think it is just a ghetto School where fights occur everyday. This is not true. Fights rarely happen, and the School is not ghetto. It is a tight-knit community of teachers and students working together for a community goal: to better the future. Sure, the food could be better, and there definitely could be more AP classes, but it is my community and it is better than a PWI.

The best part about Andrews is the opportunities that I got and the Aviation Academy. The worst part is that it is not diverse. I don't see a lot of people the look like me. I would like to see more diversity at Andrews and better school culture.

My son attended Andrews for the 2013-2014 school year. This was the WORST experience with a school and their programming we have ever had. The teachers do not communicate, the office staff speaks with you as if you are bother because you ask questions about your child, the counselors have their "pic...
